Eighteen months after the release of Panther, Apple's Mac OS X 10.4, codenamed Tiger, is finally here, and it has been well worth the wait.

Like clowns piling out of the other kind of Mini, you’ll be similarly surprised at how much Apple has managed to squeeze into the Mac mini.

There’s so much to like about this package that it might just be worth switching operating systems to get hold of it.

Still one of the best examples of laptop design in the market, but there are compromises
